What I actually do

Websites, APIs and web applications, built and run by one person in Scottsdale, Arizona. Fixed prices, no hourly surprises, and the same developer on the phone afterwards. Below is the honest version of what that covers and what it costs.

Websites and web applications

Most business sites do not need a database, a build step, or a framework that will need replacing in three years. I build the simplest thing that does the job, because that is the version still working when you come back to it. When a project genuinely does need the machinery -- accounts, payments, real-time updates, a search index -- I have built all of that too, and you can click through to it on the portfolio.

What that usually includes

Strategic Website Design

  • Loads fast on a phone on bad signal
  • Written so a customer can find the thing
  • Built to be edited later without me
  • Works properly on a phone

Applications with logins and money

  • Accounts, roles and permissions
  • Stripe payments, subscriptions and payouts
  • Real-time updates over websockets
  • Enterprise-grade performance optimization

E-Commerce Solutions

  • Secure transaction platforms
  • Intuitive shopping experiences
  • Payment gateway integration
  • Advanced inventory management

How this goes

Four steps, and you deal with the same person at every one of them

1

Discovery Call

A call where you describe the problem and I ask awkward questions about the edge cases. Free, and no obligation after it.

2

Scope & Quote

Receive transparent, fixed pricing with detailed deliverables. No hourly surprises or hidden costs.

3

Rapid Development

I build it, with something to look at every week. You will see it working long before it is finished.

4

Launch & Support

Deployed, documented, and ready for users. Full ownership transfers to you with ongoing support available.

Technology Stack

PostgreSQL
Redis
Prisma ORM
Socket.IO
PM2
Linux/VPS
SSL/HTTPS

APIs and getting systems talking

If two systems in your business do not talk to each other, somebody is retyping data between them -- and that person is making mistakes. I build the connection that removes the retyping: inventory pushed to retail partners automatically, payouts through Stripe Connect, a catalogue that queries live stock, or a REST API so somebody else can build against your data.

RESTful API design and implementation
Third-party platform integrations
Real-time data synchronization
Robust database optimization
Secure system architecture
